Having your own raspberry piece can be very rewarding and a fun addition to your landscape. In order to establish and maintain a productive area, there are important factors to consider when selecting, locating and caring for plants. For starters, you will need to decide what type of raspberry you are going to develop. The types of raspberries can be classified by ... One of the most rewarding aspects of gardening is to enjoy plants at their flowering stage.

The silver leaves of this blue star genie are accented against the autumn color of Japanese maple leaves. We usually use paper or a computer to create a landscaping plan. When we implement the plan, we build a three-dimensional space in which people engage.

Figure 19 - 25. There is a wide variety of textures, sizes and leaf colors as well as the variety of hArdscape elements that keep this little space interesting. Figure 19-26. Harmony is seen in this Japanese garden, all the components of the design relate to each other to create a coherent whole. In the first part of this chapter, we presented the principles and concepts that underlie landscaping. In this section, we focus on the mechanics of developing a landscaping plan. The planning of a residential landscape begins with the evaluation of the entire space and the desired overall effect of the final design.

Provide intermediate spaces in the newly planted garden so that these open areas are not overgrown with weeds. One option is regular mulching with an organic material, such as pine fines, jagged leaves or double-hammered hardwood mulch. All of these mulches suppress weeds, appear attractive, retain moisture and protect and build healthy soil. Deficiencies can also be filled temporarily with annuals for a few years, provided they are not overcrowded or compete with permanent plantations. Do not over-populate plants during initial planting to create an "unstable landscape" (Figure 19-45).

Deciduous trees can be planted with tall, upright crowns south of the house to provide maximum shade in summer. Trees with lower crowns on the ground are more appropriateIt west, where shade is needed from the lower angles of the afternoon sun. Use tree lanes to channel summer breezes to the house. To escape the winter winds, create windbreaks made up of evergreen trees or shrubs between the house and the direction from where the prevailing winds are coming. Consider shading outdoor air conditioners for maximum energy savings. Plant all the trees far enough away from the house so that when they reach maturity, their root system does not damage the foundations and the branches do not damage the roof.

The world consists of three different planes of space that affect the human experience. As we engage in the world, we are always surrounded by these three plans - horizontal, vertical and general expenses. As the volumes of these different planes change, the way we experience the space changes. In the landscape, for example, a closed space created by a dense canopy has a different feeling of open grazing. One space is shaded and dark, while the other is sunny and open. Our goal in understanding these differences is not to judge them. Rather, it is to accept that these different kinds of space experiments exist.

Another area that is underestimated is the budget, and one of the main factors in a budget is the work involved. It's always more expensive, and people pay the most. When you start a landscape project, make sure you have a sufficient budget, because you want to do the work once, and you want to do it right. The biggest mistake people make when planning to plan their yard is just visualizing what it will look like during the day. Adding outdoor lighting not only helps with vision and movement, but also breaks the garden. It should not be expensive or a lot of effort. For example, there are many good sunlamps that can easily get stuck in the ground.

Or, if you prefer to create a house entirely in 3D, you can do it too using the large library of doors, windows, cladding and roofing that are included. These two methods of visualizing your landscaping ensure that you are able to realize your landscaping ideas. Realtime Landscaping Plus has been designed from scratch to be easy to use for anyone.

Linear shapes emphasize the real and imaginary lines in the landscape and play an important role in the creation of small and large spaces. Draw the viewer's eye through the landscape by grouping plants or hardscape elements (Figure 19-24). The eye is unconsciously influenced by how the groupings fit and flow horizontally and vertically. Variety created through diverse and contrasting shapes, textures and colors is a feature of good landscape design. By avoiding uniformity, the variety reduces monotony in a design. Adding elements with contrasting qualities or contrast increases visual interest and increases viewer satisfaction with the design (Figure 19-25).

Residential landscapes are part of a larger landscape and an ecological community. When we design a landscape that respects the environment, we protect the natural elements of the site and treat the landscape as a living system. We plan to reduce inputs of energy, water and materials and avoid the use of toxic or forbidden materials. The following environmentally friendly design techniques and considerations are based on the enhancement of ecosystem services in the landscape. Traditional landscaping often incorporates the removal of all off-site water as quickly as possible. In an ecological design, water is not treated as a waste to capture and transport off-site.

We recognize that the more a person goes through transition spaces from a completely closed environment to a fully open environment, the more the experience becomes transparent and connected. Addressing the hierarchy, or order, of space and scale is also important. More precisely, land use can be determined by the scale of a space. Roads, for example, have a defined hierarchy. All lanes can be of standard size (large enough to accommodate a vehicle), but the streets are designed to accommodate a certain volume of traffic. As such, a level 1 road such as a highway may have four lanes in each direction.

Uniformity allows a pair of them to flank this porch. Note how they are perched on iron racks and how the light sources are placed behind them to make them go out after dark.
